This palette is such a good idea
it is a 3 in 1 blush palette
A complete cheek solution in 1 compact with a huge mirror.
you would think more companys would be making compacts like these
this item is not available in the UK which is such a shame
but it is available to purchase online here
http://www.cargocosmetics.com/products/cheeks/contour-palette
it costs $34 in the USA
and is available in 2 shades
one is Malibu - as reviewed below
the other is Monaco which is more coral
This palette is in shade contour 01 malibu
I think its named after that whole malibu pink barbie theme
the compact holds 3 pans
a contouring shade
a blush
and a highlighter shade
The reverse of the compact has full instructions printed on it as well as a face map to show you exactly where and how to apply each shade
so you can never forget if you leave this at the back of a drawer for months and lose the packaging
I love that it has a huge full size mirror
The compact is the same size as an ipod touch and has a similar pretty smooth metallic finish and looks very sleek.
you only need to apply a small amount each time
each shade also has its function embossed on it so you can (initially) know what you are doing without turning it over
I feel that the contour shade on here is slightly on the red side for my liking but it still works ok
the pink blush in the malibu compact is just like MAC's best selling and most famous shade in pink swoon
the highlight shade is not shimmery either its like a Bare escentuals mineral original foundation in that it has a slight iridescent or like MAC MSF natural
I was sent this product for review
and this is my personal opinion

Oh I received this too, but I don't use it as much as I should. I love the huge mirror, too!
